  • Qidian/Webnovel is a site that has introduced many readers to the genres of xianxia, xianhua, raising monsters, historical China, and so on. Myriad Paths is a fresh new roleplaying site where you can create characters and write about them, interacting with other players/writers and creating stories of your own together.

    This is just a roleplay site made by fans for fans, so there's nothing like a fee required, and there's no money to be earned from this. It's just for fun!

    Myriad Paths - What is it?

    Come join a sprawling world filled with magical abilities and mythical creatures, where every character is a protagonist! Explore regions filled with treasure and danger. Control the elements, summon the wind and rain, or raise an undead army. Play hearts with the strings of your lute, craft powerful weapons, or tame wild beasts to serve you. Perhaps even forge your own path, one unheard of among the myriad.

    Myriad Paths is a literate RP based on Chinese Xianxia novels, such as Jade Dynasty, I shall Seal the Heavens, Reverend Insanity, Renegade Immortal, Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, Heaven Official’s Blessing, Tales of Demons and Gods, Douluo Dalu, and Cultivation Chat Group. For those of whom these names do not ring a bell, you are nonetheless welcome. Myriad Paths is set in an original world, and no prior knowledge is needed!

    Our site features:

    • An expansive world filled with numerous biomes to explore!
    • A wordcount-based progression system, which allows for nearly any abilities you can imagine!
    • Discover, earn, or purchase crafting materials to forge powerful weapons and miraculous medicines!
    • An entirely optional combat system, which may be used in conjunction with the progression system to determine victors in PVP and PVE battles. Currently in testing, with balance changes being made to ensure a fun and fair environment for those who enjoy such things!
    • Includes provisions for any desired background, including non-human options, such as plants, beasts, or even living stones! This includes settings such as transmigration, reincarnation, regression, and more!
    • Create your own faction in a living world that will be developed by the actions of members!
    • LGBTQIA+ Friendly!

    Myriad Paths, One Dao. What will be your path to immortality?

    • I received an alert saying my review had been deleted, but there was no information about why it was deleted or what series it was on. I don't know if it was deleted because the writer dropped and deleted the story, if he/she was rewriting it, or if he/she just didn't like my review or what. If there was something I did that was considered inappropriate, I would like to know what it is.

      Is there a way to find out any of this information?

      • Prishi_K The thing I've been doing is only reading one series on a daily basis and using my Fast Passes for that series. Once that series is complete, I figure I'll return to other series I was reading. Of course, I also had to decisively drop a number of series that were good enough to be entertaining and waste time but not good enough to pay for.

        Of course, it's not like Webnovel has a monopoly on all web novels. There are plenty of other sites out there with series originally in English or even in other languages that are not copyrighted by Webnovel. You can always visit those instead for new novels. Of course, many writers want to earn some money for their efforts, so it's normal for Webnovel and the other sites to ask for payment to read chapters or for donations.

      • ealdgyth Is it true that reading minutes only give experience points? If so, then there isn't much reason to use the app in the first place. It's really cumbersome to begin with, and it crashes all the time anyway. If I actually want to read something, I always have to use my PC instead.

        • KiraAmor ...What kind of chapter costs one coin? Don't you have any leftover coins? You can choose whether to use the pass or use coins.

          • EmeraldDragon Free passes permanently unlock chapters. They're not going to become locked again later or anything. Salvius98 passed along incorrect information. You can confirm this by looking at the announcement in your inbox.

            • DarkRay I agree, but their customer service and PR is atrocious. There are ways to announce things like this without wantonly generating hate from all of their customers.

              • This happens pretty often for me regardless of whether I use the app or the website or even if I restart my device, which is why I usually avoid comics on this site (thanks to the recent update, I have dropped all the comics here except for one). Usually waiting a day or two and trying again works. It really sucks when you get into a good series and then abruptly can't read it anymore, though.

              • BettyChan KiraAmor I thought the Fast Passes expired in a week, which is much faster than what the SS did. Are you saying the expiration means a chapter gets locked again if it was unlocked with a Fast Pass?

                EDIT: I just looked at the announcement page again. It says the following:
                "A Fast Pass can unlock a chapter (of any price). The chapter will REMAIN UNLOCKED FOREVER."

                Fast Passes expire faster than Coins do, so it makes sense to use them first. The chapters remain unlocked just like they would when bought with SS or Coin. They stay unlocked, so anyone who wants to reread a good series on here can do so without having to unlock chapters all over again.

                • There was an app update today, and I downloaded it on my iPad. Since then, I cannot open the Webnovel app at all. The start-up Webnovel screen immediately flickers off. I'm using an iPad. I already restarted my device.

                  • collinziler According to another thread, this is due to an app update and was intentional. I can't access the app right now to confirm it, though.

                    • With another user's help, I found it! It is under "Inbox" and then "Messages." The Fast Pass allows people to unlock chapters (plural) for free.

                      • Yuki_Qing No. Where is it? Where do I find this announcement? Is it in the forum?

                        EDIT: The only stickied threads I see on the forum are these:

                        I don't see anything about this.....

                        EDIT 2: Found it! It's under the "Messages" in the Inbox. I don't check there as often as I used to because I get so many notifications.

                        • Spirit Stones were recently changed to Coins, and now we earn something called a "Fast Pass" instead of either of them. What exactly is this Fast Pass, and what can I use it for? Since there was no announcement, as per usual on this site, I am a bit lost.
